A Coc 'n' Ball story

A neat little puzzle game with a great atmosphere and some really interesting ideas thanks to its ball-hopping, world jumping puzzles. I actually think its really well designed for newcomers to the genre, or those who are more familiar with the puzzle design of 2D platformers (which the game's director was responsible for with Limbo and Inside). It was a shame for me that these ideas weren't explored much further than surface level as there seemed to be so much promise for the kinds of puzzle possible, but it's hard to be too critical in that regard as it's not something the game ever really sets out to do.

I was probably more disappointed that Cocoon lacks much of a narrative hook - as mentioned the atmosphere is great but I was really playing more for the puzzles than any kind of world building which felt a bit perfunctory at times.
